Alexis, 6, is the state's Personality La Petite representative. She is the daughter of Jamie and Shyenne Harrell.

Allana, 10, is the state's Little Miss Pre-Teen representative. The daughter of Darrene and Jack Hall, she attends Northeast Elementary School.
All three honorees will compete in interview, sportswear and party wear at the state competition.
